Preclassification of raw infrared spectra has often been neglected in scientific literature. Separating spectra of low spectral quality, due to low signal-to-noise ratio, presence of artifacts, and low analyte presence, is crucial for accurate model development. Furthermore, it is very important for sparse data, where it becomes challenging to visually inspect spectra of different natures. Hence, a preclassification approach to separate infrared spectra for sparse data is needed. In this study, we propose a preclassification approach based on Multiplicative Signal Correction (MSC). The MSC approach was applied on human and the bovine knee cartilage broadband Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra and on a sparse data subset comprising of only seven wavelengths. The goal of the preclassification was to separate spectra with analyte-rich signals (i.e., cartilage) from spectra with analyte-poor (and high-matrix) signals (i.e., water). The human datasets 1 and 2 contained 814 and 815 spectra, while the bovine dataset contained 396 spectra. A pure water spectrum was used as a reference spectrum in the MSC approach. A threshold for the root mean square error () was used to separate cartilage from water spectra for broadband and the sparse spectral data. Additionally, standard noise-to-ratio and principle component analysis were applied on broadband spectra. The fully automated MSC preclassification approach, using water as reference spectrum, performed as well as the manual visual inspection. Moreover, it enabled not only separation of cartilage from water spectra in broadband spectral datasets, but also in sparse datasets where manual visual inspection cannot be applied. 相似文献
Electron impact induced fragmentations of the title compounds were studied by exact mass measurement and metastable ion analysis. Sulphur atoms within the ring effectively stabilize the positive charge. In most cases the loss of the larger substituent, and not the other, methyl group, gives rise to the base peak in the spectrum. Examination of competing metastable transitions shows that generally this is also the lowest activation energy primary process. In general primary ring cleavage reactions are not important unless there is a heteroatom in the substituent that can assist this cleavage. 相似文献
Introduction of a new type of pressure sensor has been shown to improve orders of magnitude the sensitivity of a photoacoustic measurement system using a black body radiation source. A new pressure sensor was developed to overcome the limitations in the capacitive microphone technology and to obtain ultimate sensitivity in photoacoustic gas detection when using low modulation frequency below 500 Hz. The pressure sensor is a cantilever-type microphone with interferometric measurement of the sensor displacement. By using conventional filter-type photoacoustic setup with the cantilever microphone and a black body radiation source, we obtained a detection limit in the sub-ppb range for methane gas with 100 s measurement time. 相似文献
The hydrolysis reactions of AlCl3 in 0.1 M aqueous solutions at pH 3.27-4.20 were monitored by electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-ToF MS) as a function of time. The cationic and anionic ESI mass spectra of aluminum(III) solutions gave strong evidence of the presence of a variety of monomeric and polymeric complexes. Competition between the OH- and Cl- ligands within the same aluminum core was observed. The influence of the sample cone voltage on the product distribution was also explored. The optimum sample cone voltage for the cationic spectra was 70 V. For the anionic spectra no optimum sample cone voltage was found and the appearance of the anionic spectra was strongly dependent on the sample cone voltage within the whole range explored. 相似文献
Electrophoretically homogenous proteolytic enzyme with molecular weight 31,500 and pI 3.75 was obtained from a culture medium
ofStreptomyces 771 by chromatography onN-benzyl chitin adsorbent, subsequent chromatography on CM-cellulose, and preparative isofocusing and chromatography on Sephadex
G-75. The enzyme hydrolyzesN- benzoyl-DL-arginine-p-nitroanilideN-benzoyl-DL-lysine-p-nitro-anilideN-benzoyl-DL-arginine ethyl ester, and Na-caseinate. It also exhibits pronounced thrombolytic activity. The activity of the enzyme was
suppressed by soya bean inhibitor, but remained unaffected by chelating agents and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride. The enzyme
was immobilized on aldehyde dextran, and some kinetic parameters of the immobilized enzyme were determined. The thrombolytic
activity of native and immobilized enzyme was studied as well. 相似文献
Anesthetized children have dominant blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal sources presenting high-power fluctuations at very low frequencies (VLF <0.05 Hz). Aliasing of frequencies higher than critically sampled has been regarded as one probable origin of the VLF fluctuations. Aliased signal frequencies change when the sampling rate of the data is altered. In this study, the aliasing of VLF BOLD signal fluctuation was analysed by switching the repetition time (TR) of magnetic resonance (MR) images. Eleven anesthetized children were imaged at 1.5 T using TRs of 500 and 1200 ms. The BOLD signal sources were separated with independent component analysis (ICA). Occipital cortex signal sources had nonaliased VLF fluctuation ( approximately 0.03 Hz) in 9 of 11 subjects. Arterial signal sources failed to present stable power peaks at frequencies lower than 0.42 Hz presumably due to aliasing. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-related signal sources showed nonaliased VLF in four subjects. In conclusion, the VLF BOLD signal fluctuation in the occipital cortex is a true physiological fluctuation, not a result of signal aliasing. 相似文献
In this paper, we present a high data rate implementation of a digital predistortion (DPD) algorithm on a modern mobile multicore CPU containing an on-chip GPU. The proposed implementation is capable of running in real-time, thanks to the execution of the predistortion stage inside the GPU, and the execution of the learning stage on a separate CPU core. This configuration, combined with the low complexity DPD design, allows for more than 400 Msamples/s sample rates. This is sufficient for satisfying 5G new radio (NR) base station radio transmission specifications in the sub-6 GHz bands, where signal bandwidths up to 100 MHz are specified. The linearization performance is validated with RF measurements on two base station power amplifiers at 3.7 GHz, showing that the 5G NR downlink emission requirements are satisfied.
We consider words together with a compatibility relation induced by a relation on letters. Unique factorization with respect
to two arbitrary word relations R and S defines the (R,S)-freeness of the semigroup considered. We generalize the stability theorem of Schützenberger and Tilson’s closure result
for (R,S)-free semigroups. The inner and the outer (R,S)-unique factorization hull and the (R,S)-free hull of a set of words are introduced and we show how they can be computed. We prove that the (R,S)-unique factorization hulls possess a defect effect, which implies a variant of a cumulative defect theorem of word semigroups.
In addition, a defect theorem of partial words is proved as a corollary. 相似文献
Digital subtractive synthesis is a popular music synthesis method, which requires oscillators that are aliasing-free in a perceptual sense. It is a research challenge to find computationally efficient waveform generation algorithms that produce similar-sounding signals to analog music synthesizers but which are free from audible aliasing. A technique for approximately bandlimited waveform generation is considered that is based on a polynomial correction function, which is defined as the difference of a non-bandlimited step function and a polynomial approximation of the ideal bandlimited step function. It is shown that the ideal bandlimited step function is equivalent to the sine integral, and that integrated polynomial interpolation methods can successfully approximate it. Integrated Lagrange interpolation and B-spline basis functions are considered for polynomial approximation. The polynomial correction function can be added onto samples around each discontinuity in a non-bandlimited waveform to suppress aliasing. Comparison against previously known methods shows that the proposed technique yields the best tradeoff between computational cost and sound quality. The superior method amongst those considered in this study is the integrated third-order B-spline correction function, which offers perceptually aliasing-free sawtooth emulation up to the fundamental frequency of 7.8 kHz at the sample rate of 44.1 kHz. 相似文献
